The total global warming emissions from EVs—including manufacturing, 开车, and disposal—are about half the emissions of a comparable gasoline car over its lifetime. 随着越来越多的电动汽车上路, the nation will consume less oil, which could help alleviate pollution-related health problems caused by burning gasoline and diesel fuel.
UCS analyzed these benefits state-by-state and found that:
- Electric vehicles are cheaper than gasoline-powered cars to fuel and maintain, and incentives are available to help bring down the cost of new and used EVs
- Transitioning our transportation system to EVs is good for the climate, 对公众健康有益, 并有助于创造良好的就业机会
- Charging infrastructure is increasing and continued investment is improving access to charging
- EVs can be a viable option for rural drivers, who tend to drive longer distances on average
